You recommend playing Deserts of Kharak first? I've only play Homeworld demo back in the day, loved it but never got around playing it. I own them all now and thinking of playing them but i wanna play in the best order for best experience. Chronological or released?
Play chronological. Deserts is a great game, and feels technically more advanced than Homeworld 1 and 2, but the events of the later games can take away from the experience of DoK in my opinion.
Being an older gamer, I played HW1 and HW2 well before DoK was even a dream in the minds of the developers. Because of that, playing HW1 (at least) first really puts a spin on DoK considering you know what all of the decisions made by the Kushan through the S'Jets lead up to. All in all, the pre-knowledge makes those decisions more devastating and the game as a whole very bitter sweat. Though I would have liked to know what it would be like to play DoK without the fore knowledge, I can say the bitter-sweetness of having that fore knowledge potentially makes the emotion of the game even more powerful. (Really worked hard to not give away spoiler, but that's kind of hard).
David, I tell you what, while playing DoK I felt completely justified in my actions, like I was the big hero in the game and everyone else was wrong. There were a lot of names I didn't recognize so I assumed they didn't matter; the only thing that seemed to matter was survival. I went back and replayed it after beating Homeworld and it was a completely different experience. Definitely not as enjoyable in my opinion. It felt like I was being tricked into waking a sleeping beast.
Fun fact: 16:30 Imperial Transmission is actually a heavily distorted message in Russian referring to the first man in space, Yuri Gagarin, and his flight. You could actually hear parts of it saying "... in two minutes", "...by a first ever human cosmonaut" and "...between Earth and outer space". I wonder where they got that recording from :) Probably some USSR radio broadcast.
@@Reynevan100 I hear people say that a lot, where did you hear that from? I definitely think it could be a possibility, I've just never found any information about it.
37:29 - Ambient - Mission1 beautiful, perfect. The simple piano notes are... a lonely soul in dark space shores, longing for home. And that's the meaning of Sci-fi and humanity, right there
Man, i remember when i was really little my dad used to play this game so much and now i'm playing the remastered version of it. Easily the best game of all time. Beautiful game and amazing soundtrack.
I have been so lucky to be able to play the original and the remastered. Too bad the DLC was not remastered as well.. it was homeworld cataclysm. Haven't yet played deserts of Kharak.
i remember playing it in 1999 in england, could not stop playing, everything in the game is a masterpiece, the RTS, the Graphics, the ost, the script, i you could buy the remaster edition of the game do it, is a must have, i remenber the first time a watched cosmos by carl sagan, that guy change my live, i also saw him in person an amazing guy, the best teacher, professo....r, we need more people like him nowadays, our children need it , this game in a sense has the spirit of carl sagan
no it certainly does not. homeworld has the same vibe of star wars. its written like an ancient epic with mysticism and spirituality baked into the affairs and struggles of mankind. far off shoot from the annoying and nasally atheist pretentious from something like star trek or carl's works about humanity overcoming superstitions
@@manawa3832 lol the entire homeworld story is about ''overcomming superstition'' and grasping the reigns of your own destiny as a species... names and references to human culture are not because they wanted you to become interested in the fucking bible or quran.. its because it is engrained in humans lives and draws you into the game world without even trying... many games have done this... infact your entire race is fucking atheist in homeworld... nobody everrrrr talks about gods or anything liek that... everybody knows it was just a more tech advanced species pulling the strings...
I'm liking the video because of Mothership launch Kushan and Taiidan. I am at college, studying to become a system engineer. In the future I will work with machines, robots, automatic tool and those two songs represent for me the best mix of classical music and engine sounds. It gives me that vide that one day, when I will finish my studies, I go so far that I will help the world becoming a better, cleaner, desirable and happier place. It gives me hope to make a better future for myself and for those who will come after me. It makes me believe in myself that one day I will make robots that will cure cancer, robots and automatic systems that will boost the agricultural potential to feed the world and remove the chemicals and toxin used in modern day agriculture, I can make systems that will give us, humans, energy that we all need in a clean way and be in harmony with the nature, I could even make space ships that will help us to explore the most unknown and fascinating place that exists today : the universe. I can give to humanity a legacy that will live forever, making everything automatic but not neglecting or harm our souls that today are starved or in comas. I wanted to study philosophy but it seems that fate I guess made me go for applied programming and automatics.

After playing HW in '99, no other rts has been as satisfying. Cataclysm being the first to give me chills. HW2 seated space rts genre as my favorite, and Deserts of Kharak gave life to the souls lost in the beginning.
"Keeper" and "Turranic Raiders" in insanely good, Goosebumps all over the place. Man, 1999 almost 22 years ago and I am still right on spot listening to this soundtrack. Pure love!
This soundtrack makes you feel like your ships are venturing somewhere they’re prepared to go while simultaneously making you feel like you’re somewhere in the universe you shouldn’t be. Pretty genius, honestly.
37:29 Is like a mix of the sweeping city shots from Bladerunner and the wide angle spacescapes of 2001. Sublime, it brings me back to watching my fleet of resource collectors and patrolling corvettes, all the while to the backdrop of a vast galaxy, waiting to be explored.
Since the beginning, Day is done it's late, the music, the intensity... 22 years later still my goto for that turn on tune out and evolve... mind reorganization with multi-tasking at its evolutionary finest.
The first track, especially 00:30 - 01:30 reminds me of one of the tracks from Fallout 1 (Underground Troubles). It kind sounds like 2-3 tracks from Fallout mixed together. It is a great track though! Homeworld game series is just such a masterpiece!
I still own the original CD versions of these games. I wouldn't sell 'em for the world, even though I never actually finished the campaigns of either of these games. I just suck at strategy games in general.
if you ever want to I speedrun the original I can give you some notes on how to beat it and post some tutorials on casual strats. Its not terribly difficult when you get into it.
That moment when the ominous radar blips around your wrecked supply ship resolve into a screaming pack of Turanic fighters, jostling each other for position as they race to be the first to kill you, the music swells to a war horn, and the void erupts in battle.....
i remember the chills down my spine and the slight bit of fear with music transition with the war horn and the first enemies you encounter ... up until then you figured there were enemies because why else would there be combat units and formations but.. oh my...
I love that you put this here. And Star Wolf was a fun game...Which I don't think I finished now that I think about it. I was on a board that got together and massed ordered the game it was great.
Who would have thought Samuel Barber's Adagio, Agnes Dei, would be used in music for a game. I don't play the games, but some of the music is beautiful. This one really surprised me when I heard the music.
I've been writing my sci-fi novel to this. Really cool music, I also like the sound effects of radio chatter and "ships ambience" that goes along with it. Thanks for putting it all up!
Yeah, if you want to send me something I'd send over some chapters of mine. Though I've found that Steven King's advice for not showing something off until its done does have merit to it, and "critiquing" others' first drafts serves little purpose but to fuel the little voice in your head that's always whispering "This is crap ... come on ... no one will want to read this." Wouldn't mind just saying what I liked, and leaving it at that if you're interested.
The one and only thing I disliked in HW1-Remastered, is the removal of function to change ambient musics in skirmishes... Back in original HW1, whilst playing a skirmish, I usually switched the ambient music to match the current situation I'm in, using only a 'period ( . )' and a 'comma ( , )', i.e. : 2:09:04 'Raiders Battle', when I got attacked by enemy fleets 2:04:08 'Kadeshii Battle', when I launched raiding parties against enemy collectors 1:51:30 'Imperial Battle', when I launched strikes against enemy fleets and went full 'FFA' Finally, 1:57:55 'Agnus Dei' when my fleets happened to be defeated
I wish they would release a high quality version of Cataclysm's soundtrack as the in-game files are heavily affected by data compression. Unlike the situation with the source code I'm 99% sure that Paul Ruskay, the composer of all HW games, has the original studio files but for whatever reason they haven't been able to arrange something (even under the Emergence name).
Как фильм Психо сделала музыка на треть, по мнению Хичкока, так и даную серию игры. Это тот редкий случай когда музыку игры слушаешь отдельно...много раз.
nuttex Thanks for pointing that out. It was pretty hard to do make an full list of these Soundtracks, The Soundtrack files names were Cryptic and it was definitely a challange to decipher them as I extracted them from the game files. Glad you like it.
...at this historical moment when the spaceship is above the surface of the planet... * noise * sending transmission about state of the crew... * noise * about flying between...* noise * the Earth and the spaceship * noise *... at this historical moment * noise *... controlled by the first human-cosmonaut Yuri Alekseyevich * noise *... at this historical moment...
Some great music and atmospheric sounds from some great games. I hope they make more of these games - a lot of DoK art could be put right in a great Dune or Mad Max RTS game.
Battle keeper makes my blood rush faster than the speed of hyperspace >8c I genetically modified my brain to have ardreneline sacks next to all major veins in my brain to make sure im pumped enough to freak out about god damn keepers.
I wonder if there is some hidden truth about Earth and Humanity in the Homeworld storyline... Maybe we have a "Hyperspace core" hidden on Earth and it acts as a Gravity Well detering Aliens.lol
One of these games that completly changed my expectations to any other upcomming game. And not many was that good as HW was. Still one of the best SiFi RTS ever!

I'm convinced that this game's soundtrack inspired the Battlestar Galactica remake soundtrack.
I recently thought the same thing. The Turanic Raiders Battle and Imperial Battle themes from Homeworld 1 sound like they’d fit right in with BSG...
and the halo soundtrack

The main theme at 3:00 is called "Adagio for Strings", a classic from 1936 : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adagio_for_Strings
This version is Agnus Dei. Same song with lyrics.
This is also played in the movie PLATOON with Charlie Sheen, when Willem Dafoe is being gunned down.

Didn't notice until now that the Taiidan imperial transmission at 16:30 is actually in Russian. :o
Not only that, it seems like it uses transmission about Juryi Gagarin's first space flight
Words do not do what you have done here justice, simply superb
Such a good OST, if I had to pick though I'd say my two favorite tracks are the Battle for Sajuuk and The Keeper.
The music still sets this as the best game I've ever experienced.

Insane to hear the Dune OST and compare it to this, without knowing it Hanz Zimmer recreated the Homeworld OST
I've always loved the ambient music from Mission 1 (37:29) in the original game. It's a nice combination of relaxing and epic.

1:51:30 'Imperial Battle', when I launched strikes against enemy fleets and went full 'FFA'
Finally, 1:57:55 'Agnus Dei' when my fleets happened to be defeated
a real damn shame they weren't able to get Cataclysm into the remastered as well. Loved fighting against/ as the Beast
I think they said that they actually lost all the code and assets for Cataclysm. There are fan attempts to mod Cataclysm in, though.
It is on GOG now actually, as Homeworld: Emergence
I wish they would release a high quality version of Cataclysm's soundtrack as the in-game files are heavily affected by data compression.

"100 years ago a satellite detected an object under the sands of the great desert. An expedition was sent."
Everything about this game is epic !
job well done!!keep em coming....
Is this heaven? this is awesome. I always loved the homeworld franchise i can listen to this forever
The description is slightly misleading. For example, Turanic Raiders is from HW1, not 2.
Thanks for a top notch upload, though!
nuttex Thanks for pointing that out. It was pretty hard to do make an full list of these Soundtracks, The Soundtrack files names were Cryptic and it was definitely a challange to decipher them as I extracted them from the game files.
Glad you like it.
I love how in the history of the foundry they added the hammering sound.
16.30 imperial transmission speaks Russian, lol.
what do they say?
...at this historical moment when the spaceship is above the surface of the planet... * noise * sending transmission about state of the crew... * noise * about flying between...* noise * the Earth and the spaceship * noise *... at this historical moment * noise *... controlled by the first human-cosmonaut Yuri Alekseyevich * noise *... at this historical moment...
how could you discern that from the filter
I'm native russian.
Да
54:37 reminds me very much of Battlestar.
All I have to say is........................... Ambient Mission 01 is life
Such an amazing soundtrack
I captured every multibeam frigate I saw. The mission became capturing those vicious bastards.
Anyone else notice the Freespace 1 menu ambiance at 10:30?
2:52 Elíassssssssssssss in space :V
2:17:16 I am high without having to use drugs.
Wonderful. So beautiful and creative. A welcome break from the same old cookie-cutter "cinematic" orchestral music that is typical of the game genre.
Some great music and atmospheric sounds from some great games. I hope they make more of these games - a lot of DoK art could be put right in a great Dune or Mad Max RTS game.
love this game, and the others as well.
Battle keeper makes my blood rush faster than the speed of hyperspace >8c
I genetically modified my brain to have ardreneline sacks next to all major veins in my brain to make sure im pumped enough to freak out about god damn keepers.
There is a variant of The Angel Moon that plays during the 2nd mission that has an almost clock like percussive sound. I can seem to find it anywhere.
Fucken Turanic Raiders theme is the most ominous shit, you instantly new shit was goin down when that shit come on
I wonder if there is some hidden truth about Earth and Humanity in the Homeworld storyline... Maybe we have a "Hyperspace core" hidden on Earth and it acts as a Gravity Well detering Aliens.lol
PROBE... DISPATCHED...
No one has mentioned Homeworld by the band YES which featured on the original Homeworld 1 game
One of these games that completly changed my expectations to any other upcomming game. And not many was that good as HW was. Still one of the best SiFi RTS ever!
Mothership kushan and taiidan kinda reminds me of the soundtrack of the Destiny 2
42:34 hit me like a truck, realizing that I will be responsible for the survival of 650,000 of my people
